So In the near future (basically when I can afford it) I am planning on changing my rims to something larger (probably 17") and black.

I like white cars with black rims, so I am definitely getting black. laugh.gif

My questions are:
1) Will the rims in the link below fit the prefacelift 6gen? (Will they rub or will they fit)
2) Will any major modifications have to take place to fit them?
3) Do you (as in you personally) like them?

The last bit is just for my interest BTW wink.gif

Any help on this topic would be appreciated, I am a noob when it come to anything wheel and tyre related and the last time I tried to learn it I got so frustrated that I had to lay on the floor and practice the Vulcan ritual of Kolinahr so I didn't murder people kindasad.gif

Thank in advanced smile.gif

Yeah everything is 'illegal' here.
I haven't been pulled over yet either, maye because my dad is a cop tongue.gif haha

Another reason of why the 8" might not fit could be because of a horrible offset. If they had a +50 offset for example, the inner side of the wheel could hit your strut, and brakes etc.

But I'm just assuming they have a ****ty wheel calculator like 'jax tyres' that says no.

Yeah I am hoping that too...
I guess Ill just have to ring them up, or show up at their shop and talk with someone there, its obviously possible to put 17's and 18's on, so if that particular model of wheel wont fit, ill find something else that does >.<

Hopefully the package isn't too expensive lol... Got so many plans, but not enough $$$ frown.gif( hahaha
